About Us
Who are we?
We are the bridge between where young people are and where they want to be.
Freemind Mentors connects young people with highly experienced mentors who provide the relatable guidance, support, and understanding that makes all the difference.
Our Story
Over the years, we kept hearing the same thing from young people:
We heard these words again and again, from students who were thriving, ones having a tough time, and everyone in between. And we realised something: every young person we met shared the same need. Someone who remembers what it’s like to be their age. Who can guide without judgment. Who’s faced the same challenges and knows what really works.
That’s when Freemind Mentors was born: a bridge between the adult world and theirs.
Our Mission
Our People, The Mentors
Our mentors are more than guides – they’re steady voices, great listeners, and true role models. Each one brings their own story, skills, and perspective, but they all share the same commitment: to be the person they wish they’d had when they were younger.
And the experience stays with them.
97% of our mentors choose to mentor again, because they see the difference it can make.
One mentor put it simply:
“It gives people the chance to speak freely about their opinions and experiences, and learn skills they wouldn’t otherwise hear about.”

Why Trust Us
Young people’s safety and wellbeing are our absolute priority. Every mentor undergoes extensive background checks, comprehensive safeguarding training, and ongoing supervision to ensure meaningful connections within a secure, professional framework.
Our mentoring approach is grounded in research and shaped by real experience. We collaborate with the University of Portsmouth and various other learning centres to ensure our methods are evidence-based, and all of our resources draw from proven research on young people’s development. It’s why 100% of families would recommend Freemind Mentors to others.
